Naturescaping

In this section:

Naturescaping is the practice of using simple techniques that mimic nature so that your garden will thrive without using synthetic chemicals. This makes your yard a safe and healthy place for children, pets, and wildlife. A favorite practice for all levels of DIY landscapers and gardeners, Naturescaping saves time and money, inspires fresh ideas for your yard & garden, and makes your neighborhood that much more beautiful.

One of Naturescaping’s core practices is using plants native to your area, in this case the Willamette Valley and Oregon in general. Native plants are adapted to our soil and climate, so they need little to no watering, fertilizing, or care once established. They are also more resistant to common garden pests and diseases, and provide habitat for a variety of native birds and butterflies.
